    Thanks for the screenshot, that definitely shouldn’t be happening. I’ll pass it on.

    When did this start?

    No worries that ad is pretty invasive and it started like 2 or 3 days ago.

    I pray for the day our leader, the much missed Adblock, is once again allowed on here :yeah:The way this site jumps about due to ads is incredible. This is literally the only site I go on that doesn't allowed adblock too which is pish.

    Also, the site is unusable during games. Especially if it's a big event, a derby or us getting beat.

    Same on the laptop. Both sides of my screen are just littered with ads, as well as one down the bottom

    Absolute mess.

    Have you tried Brave browser?

    I just use Chrome without ad blockers on here and I'm fine. Sites that are bad I use Brave.

    The new ads are causing problems for me also, as others have reported previously, these last few days. Either with freezes or crashes and prompting partial failure error messages from this site alone.

    Tried different devices (laptop, ipad etc), tried different browsers (firefox, safari, chrome) same issue presents. Tried when have tabs and when this website is the only page open, and same.

    I only use my phone mate to go on here, mainly use Samsung internet. I tried chrome but not into it, I'll need to try find something else.
    I've tried having a lurk on kds or HB but they're * compared to this site, in terms of posts and posters.

    Just the * constant ads on here is a joke.

    Chrome Beta is better than Chrome.

    Brave is brilliant for websites with too much adverts. It cuts the adverts out of YouTube. It also allows you to have YouTube on a small screen on your phone whilst you do other stuff.

    These full ads should not be appearing for members at all, yesterday was the first of me hearing about it. When did these start and can you upload screenshots? Have they appeared today?

    You seen any today? Can you take a screenshot next time you see one and upload it? Nothing has changed at all on our side in months, so I’ll need to pass it on to the ones in control of the ads and get them to remove them.

    Thanks, they definitely shouldn’t be showing for members. I wish someone had brought this up sooner, hopefully get it sorted soon.
